Denef–Lipshitz conjecture on integral Diophantine extensions
Denef–Lipshitz conjecture on integral Diophantine extensions
Let be a number field. An extension is integrally diophantine if the ring of integers is a diophantine subset of , and a subset is diophantine when it is existentially definable by polynomial equations over the ambient ring. The Denef–Lipshitz conjecture asserts that
Denef–Lipshitz conjecture. For every number field , the extension
is integrally diophantine; equivalently, is a diophantine subset of .
This would imply a negative answer to Hilbert's tenth problem for the rings of integers of all number fields. The conjecture is attributed to Denef and Lipshitz and is unresolved in general.
